What if I decide not to accept the insurance companys offer?
If a settlement can not be reached before filing a lawsuit, your attorney will then file the appropriate lawsuit paperwork on your behalf. In fact, at the Law Office of Jack Nieland, we prepare every case as if we will be going to trial even though they may settle before a lawsuit is ever filed. Just because your case does not settle prior to the filing of a lawsuit does not mean that it will definitely go to trail. Your case can still settle at any time up until, and during the trial. In fact, most cases do settle before trial.
